DVT is the new black -------------------- ### Simple DVT with Lido Finance Simple DVT is a manually coordinated module lead by Lido with SSV & Obol to onboard new Node Operators into their set. This program allows solo-stakers to partner with experienced NO and learn all together about Distributed Validator technology. We are thrilled to be part of one of the first Node Operators participating of this module in mainnet and thankful for all the hard work this past months.

This is what Enti, one of the solo-stakers had to say: > Quite a few challenges but it's part of the effort to expand these early technologies. I think there need to be more accessible options for people like Rubén who, being in Venezuela, couldn't access, or at least not easily, some things. And then, Obol gave us some problems that I hadn't had before, but we switched to SSV and it was super simple and fast. Q1 Recap -------- ### January - Chainflip & Pastel In January we became Node Operators for two new protocols: Chainflip & Pastel.
